[feisty] OnTV does not show 24-hour clock properly

[haaland]

Binary package hint: ontv

The OnTV-applet shows all times between 12:00 and 23:59 wrong. Instead of f.ex. 17:30, it shows 05:30. This is visible in the Search program-dialog, and also when showing details about a program in the list.

I'm running english Feisty, and ontv is version 2.6.0-0ubuntu1.

That 70's show is on from 17:30 to 18:00, not 05:30 to 06:00 as OnTV tells me.

Thanks for the bug report. What locale are you using?

[Johan Svedberg (johan-svedberg-com)]

Sure it's not a rerun that's on so late? :)

OnTV should really just show the information in the downloaded XMLTV file (stored in ~/.xmltv/tv_grab_<country>.xmltv). So if you could verify that OnTV is actually doing something wrong by checking if the program exists in that file it would be great.

I'm not certain how I check properly which locale I'm running, but this is the output from locale:
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=en_NO:en_US:en_GB:en
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=
Please ask again if you need more info.

It's definately not a rerun. This is the relevant parts of my tv_grab_no.xmltv:
  <programme start="20070226173000 +0100" stop="20070226180000 +0100" channel="tv2.no">
    <title lang="no">That '70s Show</title>
    <desc lang="no">Amerikansk komiserie.</desc>
    <episode-num system="all-seasons">21</episode-num>
    <previously-shown />
  </programme>
As you can see, the time is correct here.

[Johan Svedberg (johan-svedberg-com)]

The problem is that the timezone on your system doesn't match the timezone in the xmltv file (+0100), setting LC_TIME to "no_NO.UTF-8" or something should work.

OnTV should still be able to do the correct thing here and there is a bug open at http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=348876

Sorry to ask, but how do I set this value properly? You may also want to know that the panel drop-down shows programs at correct times.

I'm planning to fix this for the next release
